Rat Control in Rochford
Older cottages in Rochford's centre have worn brickwork and old drains, and the 1930s semis and newer estates have sheds and gardens, so rats find ways into every type of home. Farm buildings stand nearby and the River Roach, farmland and marshland surround the town, giving rats plenty of food and cover close to houses.
Rochford is a small market town in south-east Essex on the River Roach, close to Southend and surrounded by farmland and marshland. It has a historic centre with a mix of older and later housing around it. We cover Hawkwell, Ashingdon, Great Stambridge and Canewdon and the rest of Rochford, across the SS4 postcodes.
